Everyone is welcome. Riders are responsible for their own safety. This is supposed to be fun … we don’t ride if it is unsafe (rain, etc.) Thanks to the Bridgewater Triathlon Club (BTC) for letting us post this update on their list/website … however, these rides are not in any way associated with the BTC.
